We have made it to week 4! There will be no lessons next week, so you have 2 weeks to complete this task. This week's task is a PERFORMANCE task. It involves your student and some furry friends - alive or not. (I did have a student do this task with his 4H sheep once!) I need to see a picture of your student performing a favorite song for a pet (or stuffed animal). It's best if you send me the picture via email. And if you could provide a name for the pet as well, that would be wonderful!
Good luck and may the winds be in your favor.

Our third task is a listening task. On the back side of last week's job application for Percy Grainger is a listening log. You can go to to listen to a piece written by Grainger. Fill out the listening log and return it next week. May the winds be in your favor.

Our second task is a learning task. Students will travel to Australia to learn about composer Percy Grainger. Brittanica Kids has some great information about him here.
I do apologize for forgetting to print the form for this challenge. If you can print it at home, that would be great! If not, please let me know and we'll make adjustments as necessary. You can find the form here. (It is the second page - job application) Students will fill out the information as though they are Percy Grainger applying for a job. Have fun with this and see if you can convince me to hire him!
Good luck, and may the winds be in your favor.
